• With the established [European and Far Eastern] manufacturers now sorting their electric game there’s no excuse to have a Tesla now.

    The EV6, i4 et al, even the Megane and MG4 have moved things on so much in the last year or so.

    The Americans and Chinese are still ahead of the Europeans on tech (the Chinese frighteningly so) but don’t yet seem to have a grasp of what makes a car a nice thing to travel in, or don’t think it matters. The Europeans know that being able to make a window work by pointing at it and saying ‘down’ is only impressive once, where a properly sprung and damped ride and tactile interactions with controls matter every time you drive.
